Sneak preview of new Renault Magnum
The updated Renault Magnum is due to be unveiled at the CV show in April, but Brian Weatherley gets a first look - and likes what he sees. Commercial Motor has gained a sneak preview of the latest Renault Magnum, which makes its official debut at the CV Show at the NEC in April. The long-serving French flagship tractor's cab has grown upwards by 20cm, so there is now 2m headroom throughout the truck as you walk around the cabin-and not just under the roof vent. The extra headroom inside is certainly noticeable.
However, the biggest changes are undoubtedly to the Magnum's already impressive storage space. A new rear overhead 'aircraft locker' adds 95 litres of storage space while the revised full-width front overhead locker is positively voluminous, providing up to 260 litres of space and with a large centre locker big enough for a microwave or TV.
